These are some of my all-time favorite quotes.
ALBERT EINSTEIN;
*"A person starts to live when he can live outside himself."
*"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."
*"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler."
*"Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it."
*"The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources."
*"The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education."
*"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."
*"Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school."
*"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing."
*"Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater."
*"If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut."
*"Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods."
*"In order to form an immaculate member of a flock of sheep one must, above all, be a sheep."
*"The release of atom power has changed everything except our way of thinking...the solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker."
*"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science."
*"He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."
*"He who joyfully marches to music rank and file, has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder."
*"Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts."
By putting these next people with Einstein doesn't mean I think they're as... Enlightened as Einstein, it just means I appriciate them as much.
Heath Ledger
*“It transcends a label. It's a story of two human beings that are in love; get over the fact that it's two men — that's the point.”
*“Aren't we at the stage these days when it just doesn't ... matter? It's a story of love and it's a story between two people. If people can't get over that and just accept it as a story, then that's their problem. I'm big enough and brave enough to do it.”
*“I had a dear friend of mine, who's my uncle. He's a big guy. He goes to bare-knuckle fighting out in the Nevada desert, and he's gay.”
Tupac Shakur
*“I know it seems hard sometimes but remember one thing.
Through every dark night, theres a bright day after that.
So no matter how hard it get, stick your chest out, keep ya head up.... and handle it.”
*“My only fear of death is coming back reincarnated”
*“I' ve been shot five times but im still breathing living proof there a god if you need a reason.”
*“To all the seeds that follow me
protect your essence
Born with less, but you still precious.”
William Shakespeare
*“A coward dies a thousand deaths... a soldier dies but once.”
*"A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool."
*"And oftentimes excusing of a fault doth make the fault the worse by the excuse."
*"Better a witty fool than a foolish wit."
*"Better three hours too soon than a minute too late."
*"Love looks not with the eyes but with the mind, and therefore is winged cupid painted blind."
*"Go to you bosom: Knock there, and ask your heart what it doth know. "
